Welcome to gender privilege. The fact that you, (I assume) a male, are more concerned about being robbed than you are being raped, is exactly the point.

A) I am male, B) I have been assaulted, but will leave details way to the side C) The presumption would be that the overwhelming preponderance of sexual assault occurs in one's home whereas robbery for jewelry and money is overwhelmingly a public affair if we are talking about assault that involves the physical presence of victim. Women are also more likely to be held up at gun point or mugged, so your claim of privilege is a red herring.
